For anyone wondering, the deplorable word is "Supercalifragilisticexpealidocious"...even though the sound of it is something quite atrocious.... ;-)

I absolutely fully agree that the REAL Narnia in Aslan's Country is the only one that meets God's absolute satisfaction. And how nice it is to see you are a person of faith. I am a minister and am absolutely in love with God. A sinner too, but a sinner with good taste. ;-) John +

Lovely thoughts, Wonderings, but I would say the entry of Uncle Andrew in The Magician's Nephew wasn't quite the same as Adam and Eve bringing death into the world. Look at Mr. and Mrs. Beaver from LWW. Just what did they inherit from Uncle Andrew? Maybe a watch fob, but certainly not a fallen...

MrBob, the problem isn't with merely using tropes, but in what you do with them.

Eeyore. You can spell it "eiughughoweigher" and get away with it.

Deep in the 48 Hectare Wood, where Christopher Robin Milne plays, you'll find the enchanted neighborhood of Chris's childhood days...

Agreed. It was surprisingly nuanced. Much like Tora Tora Tora.

Jadis is a typical Nietzsche ubermench. She does not believe in good and evil, but in master morality vs. slave morality. In other words, that the slaves, calling sour grapes, invent a religion about sacrifice, forgiveness, and forbearance. The masters work toward enlightenment, capability, and...

This one would probably get me banned if I weren't immortal. M*A*S*H* and LWW. Where they are treating casualties from the Battle at Beruna Ford.... "Hey Hawkeye, got anything for limestone??" He smirks. "Nah, I only do marble, or I'm taken for granite...."

Funny you should mention Jay Ward's Crusader Rabbit, pre-Bullwinkle. Now if you know who Winky Dink is, I'll REALLY be impressed.

Narnia and The Simpsons. Homer Simpson gets seduced by the white witch after eating one of her creme-filled doughnuts. It wasn't magic...he just likes doughnuts.

Narnia and Halo. The White Witch tried to turn Master Chief to stone but nobody noticed.

I don't think Jadis should be made more sympathetic. To me it is all part of a redefinition of evil as socially unacceptable rather than fundamentally immoral. If you want to be sympathetic, sympathize with the people who are victims of evil. Killing everyone in your entire world rather than...

Talking plants would be even more wacky. "Say it with flowers"

Agreed. You have to realize the same thing happens in composing music, and people tried to write music that didn't follow ANY set patterns and invented the hideous atonal music of the 1920s/30s.

This is a place to post quotes from the King James Version of Chronicles of Narnia. Please do not quote the original Hebrew and Greek texts without a translation. LWW 16:1-3 1 - "What an exceedingly strange place!" spake Lucy. "This multitude of stone beasts and men! It seemeth unto me like a...

I can't help it...Mary Poppins and the Pirates sounds like a rock group. Didn't they do the song "A spoonful of cocaine helps the medicine go down??"

Gives a whole new meaning to "Shivver me timbers!"

Dr. Whoo, starring Glimfeather the Owl.
